A Song for Maia: Rraegvoerrgh 1

A Song for Maia: Rraegvoerrgh 1 (ASMR 1) was the first edition of the music contest used to select the Rraegvoerri entrant for Maia Song Contest 6. It was held in the capital city of Aerz. The contest was implemented as a way to improve Rraegvoerrgh's results in the contest through the input of international juries from various Maian countries.

The contest consisted of a final wherein five songs competed, and the winner was decided by votes administered by international juries. It was hosted by Çıldıs Tanagaşeva, who has also been the Rraegvoerri spokeperson in every edition of the Maia Song Contest to date.

The winning song was the electronic song "Closer to Life" by Atella & Frøder. It placed 4th in Maia Song Contest 6 with 140 points, achieving Rraegvoerrgh's first qualification and best result to date.
